Unyama wa Boko Haram (2)

 
A New report by Human Rights Watch reveals the damage done to girls and women abducted by Boko Haram .

Its report, Those Terrible Weeks in Their Camp: 

Boko Haram Violence Against Women and Girls in North-east Nigeria, is based on interviews with 30 women and girls abducted between April 2013 and April 2014, plus 16 people who witnessed kidnappings.

The women and girls were held in eight different camps for periods ranging from two days to three months, after being taken from their homes, while working on farms, fetching water or at school. 

 One woman said:

“I was dragged to the camp leader who told me the reason I was brought to the camp was because we Christians worship three gods.

 When I objected to his claim, he tied a rope around my neck and beat me with a plastic cable until I almost passed out.

 An insurgent who I recognised from my village convinced me to accept Islam lest I should be killed. So I agreed.”
